Custom Pool Builder in Scottsdale, AZ

Scottsdale homeowners tend to want more than a rectangle of water: vanishing edges that look out over the desert, raised spas with sheer descents, fire features and outdoor living spaces that work as an extension of the house. That is the kind of work Overflow Pool Construction & Repair is known for.

Every Overflow pool starts with a design from Dane Palmero, who uses 3-D CAD so you can see your pool, spa and surroundings before construction begins. It is the same design-first approach behind our World’s Greatest Pools award.

A few of the pools and outdoor spaces Overflow Pools has designed and built across the Phoenix metro. See more in our photo gallery and project portfolio.

Overflow Pools handles the whole life of a pool in Scottsdale, from the first design to remodels and repairs years later. Our full list of pool services includes:

• New custom pools and spas, designed in 3-D before construction, including vanishing edges, sun shelves and spools
• Pool remodeling: plaster, pebble and mini pebble finishes, waterline tile, coping and decking such as travertine, flagstone and Kool Deck
• Water and fire features: sheer descents, natural rock waterfalls, bubblers and fire bowls
• Equipment and repair: variable speed pumps, filters, heaters and heat pumps, LED lighting, valves and automation
• Outdoor living: BBQs and outdoor kitchens, fireplaces and fire pits

Much of north Scottsdale is subject to the city’s Environmentally Sensitive Lands rules, which can affect how much of a lot can be disturbed and how a pool and its hardscape sit within the natural desert. Many Scottsdale homes are also in communities with HOA architectural review, which usually means submitting plans for approval before work starts.

Views are often the deciding factor in a Scottsdale design. We look at sightlines from inside the house as well as from the patio, so a vanishing edge, spa or fire feature lines up with the mountains or the sunset rather than the neighbor’s wall.

Overflow Pool Construction & Repair is owned by Dane Palmero, who began in the pool industry in 1978 as an underwater pool repair specialist and has designed and built pools since 1982. He personally designs every project and is the author of the Ultimate Pool Buyers Guide.

Our work has earned a World’s Greatest Pools award, and we were chosen to build the custom big cat pools for the Phoenix Zoo, a project you can read about in No Kitty Pool: A Builder Tackles the Big Cats.
